His attainments as a scholar and success in imparting useful knowledge, cmi- j nently qualify him for the discharge of the im portant duties of his station. Mr. Ring, the principal English Teacher, re cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high est recommendations as to character, talents, lite rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re putation which led to his selection. The branch of the Academy' at Summerville is under the immediate management of Mr. Frank lin George, a gentleman of experierce in teach ing, and highly recommended. The advantage of the location of this branch of the Academy in one of the most healthful neighborhoods rri the State, and sufficiently remote from the unfavorable in fluence of a crowded town, are too we ll known to need comment. On the whole, the Board confidently recommend to the public the principal Academy and the Branch at Summerville, as being on a bettor footing than they have heretofore been, and promising great usefulness to those who may avail themselves of (he advantages which they offer.

In manv hun dred certified rases widen has t>een made public, and in almost every species ol disease to which the human frame is liable, the happv effects ol MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PIIENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac- Inmvlrdged by the persons ber efiitted, and who were previously' unacquainted with the heau’ilully philosophical principles upon which they are compoun Jed, and upon which they eonsequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals hi the stomach ai d bowels, the various impurities and crudities con tantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened fasces which collect 1 convo'usions of the smallest intestines. Other nv dicir.es only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with ill its train ofevtls. or in a sud den d nrrhcna, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and the prejudice of those well informed men against quack rnedh tnes —cr medicines prepared and her lacied to the public bv ignorant p< rsor.s. 'J he se cond effect of the Idle Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely dopendsupon the regularity ol the urinary organs. The hlocd, v\ Inch takes its red color Irom the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the hea t, being thus purified by' them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. .Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation ol the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-bora and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-lemper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy', Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind.

In fever and ague, particularly', the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. AH that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a news -1 paper notice, or any thing that he himself may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the result of a fair trial- MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by W. B.

Robertson Co., forths treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by' means of these uslly celebrated instruments. He has now used them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid, he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous affection, by the use of these Trusses, besides many others who are in a fair way' of being entirely re lieved. The following is the language of the com ! mittee ol the Philadelphia Medical Society on the ; Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected j the permanent and accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the I committee, without material inconvenience to the patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those who wearother trusses; trials that would be imi>rudcnt with any' i other apparatus known to the committee.” “ The committee are induced by the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of tiie profession, as the best known means of me chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” The following is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in our own city. “ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia, ; and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object.” Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary' information given to enable them to adjus it themselves. The poor, who axe laboring under this aifiicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate,from someresponsi* ble person, of their pecuniary' disability.

MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong to the family of quack medicines; for the reason that the component parts are made known to the faculty', or any one else that may w'ish to know, by' any of tiie agents keeping them for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx iously' looked for, some one in almost the extreme North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not more ansutu than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty' of raising the Tomato so far North. Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they profess to be, and will do for otheis what they have done for such as mav have used them ; as .his is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will doubtless be valuable information to families to know that the Yellow are just doubly' as valuable as the lied 'Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used i as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the I system in much better condition than the other kind ; many will recollect with what trembling anxiety' calomel has been given to children, and how they' then wished for a substitute. It has long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertained that .aey contained alterative and diu retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that they know what it is .Were it a patent mystery, they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in las city.

'J'tHIS incomparal).'i;; and invaluable remedy so 1 long known, and used with such unparralleled success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap pears to need no panegvric. Its operation upon the human system is such that it invariably acts like a charm, for the relief and radical cure of a certain common and disagreeable “ills the flesh is heir to.” This prize obtains its own name from the certain success hich has attended it through all of its trying c cumstances, namely, “five days,” —the same su jess which followed it in a Northern lati tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue and hazard by M. Cheveres, from the celebrated Indian Chief Wabenothe, or Great Moon, whilst he, with others was pursuing the lucrative Fur bu siness in the North-west with the Indians. — Wabenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable success throughout his two tribes. Its known and valued virtues have already enriched to an almost incredible extent the children of this warlike prince, not only by actual sale of the article itself to in dividuals, but by parting with copies of his receipt at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe of Indians in America, with a solemn promise to the Great Spirit, never to divulge the “art of its com position until he sleeps with his fathers,” although free to use it in their respective tribes, which places it in the hands of every Indian who rely with, I may say-, religious confidence on its cura ble powers. Below is a copy of the translation as near as it can be anglisized of the deedi given by Wabenoshe, to M. Cheveret, when he purchased the original recipe, and had twice assisted the Chief himself through the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture. Few white men would ciicdit the length of time which is consumed in preparing the article for im mediate use.

There are many families w ho have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that ihey are mistaken, and labouring under distress which tney might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by tbe use jf his remedy. It is ihe result of scientific research, and iscnurely of a different chaiacter from adverlise-j patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing cornpaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so m tch suffering should have existed for ages w ilhout any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a, muted fact that this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach —those who think they have llie Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is ihe first cause, that th=* sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough ihe stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of jhe natural and healihy functions of the system. 'Phis object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to aitam. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with ihe headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health.

PERHAPS mere is nothir.g mor- calculated to disgust tne public eye than the innumerable advertisements of nostrums that are constantly ap nearing in the public prints. All are ready to ex claim, our souls are sick, our ears are pained with every day’s reports ol ills and specifics. 1 kts state of the public mind would seem to forbid any person of delicate mind from sending forth any new dis coveries in medicine, to the trial of tiW public. Still, motives of delicacy should not prevent us from making known real discoveries, which vveare con fident will benefit our fellow men. 1 Ins latter consideration has prompted ihe author of these bil lers to make them known, lie knows they are high ly efficacious, for he himself, his wife, and many friends, have given them a thorough trial. He was himself a confirmed dyspeptic,so much, that even his recollection was gone. By using these bitters he has been restored to health. Mrs. Cosby vvas troubled for many years,but was restored to health by the use of these hitters. This has been the case with nranv of Ins frk nds.

C nov 30 ly fßlflG great celebrity of this unrivalled fornpo- H sit ion, especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its favor: for it has been generally conceded to it, that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed ilhe’speed and certainty of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns,fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, &c. <fcc., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus.il prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five clays, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in tno weeks, and the most desperate cases of white swelling that can be ima gined, have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from pervailtng the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed back and limbs of horses —for tellers, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every exter nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or beast.

My present chief object in writing to you, is to learn who is your authorised agent, in this city, for,being in want of a supply of your oint ment, and the person Mr. Boyle, from whom I used to purchase it, having tailed and gone out of busi ness, I am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that J may be imposed on by a counterfeit.

They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, and now stand before the public as high in reputation, and as extensively employed in all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering man. They have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry them ; and there are but few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good effects. Ihe certificates that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of live hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in variou newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted,that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at tached to this. They arc in general use as a family medicine ind there are,thousands of families who declare they re never satisfied until they have a supply always on hand. They have no rival in curing and preventing Billious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Files, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, . Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Rowels, incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,Habitu al Costiveness,Loss of Appetite,Blotchedor Sallow Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels, i where a cathartic or aperient is needed They are j exceedingly mild in their operation, producing ! neither nausea, griping nor debility. The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca.,March 3d, 1838: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, By requestor your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs ; and I would add, that you may make use ol them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I speak of their merits from experience, as 1 and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great a>e the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house without them. I will not enumerate the afllictions they have relieved us of; but I can assure you they were many, and of very opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your medicine is a sim ple purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case. I have a sister who had been for a long pe riod severely afflicted with dropsy in the chest and was brought by it to the very verge of the grave. She was attended by the most eminent physicians that money could procure; but all their efforts to restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer ings were fruitless ; and accordingly,we all consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex pecting every day to be her last, your pills were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal pable were their effects that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all who were witness of it, (but more especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next tiling to miraculous; and yet I could mention many more of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills were equally successful in rescuing the patients from the jaw r s of death. Need I add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in this section of the country ? But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Ral eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upwards of fifteen months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me any tiling like permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and happy in being able to add, that I had scarcely used two boxes when 1 found that they' had restored me to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success— ; and consequently 1 feel it my duty'to apprise you ; of the fact, and to request of you to publish this j certilicate, as I am anxious to add my' public testi ! mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. Augu ta, Ga., Feb 10, 1539, Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. 11. Irwin of Florence, Georgia: Dr. J. P. Peters —My' DearSir—On the night of the llthinst.,l was called in great haste to the house of a fellow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where 1 found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Croup) and apparently be yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for tune, however, I had in my pocket a broken box of your pills—four of which I administere I, with such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This case,in connection with my name is at your ser vice—and 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the faculty here, that 1 believe there is not one of them who dues not use it in his private practice. Yours most resp’y. March 13, 1839. J. 11. IRWIN, M. D. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, R. L, Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ j pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi -1 cine, those effects being produced by the differences 1 of the quantity taken, and are decidedly supciior I to Lee’s, Brandieth’s or Morrison’s Pills.

Y., June 3, 1830.—1 was aware that Dr. Peters was one of the best chemists in the United Stales, and felt assured thathe would someday (fiom his intimate knowledge of the properties of herb* and drugs) produce an efflcientmedicine, and I must acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond to my expectations.
